You can tell just by looking at Gunther that he comes from old money. But he doesn’t seem arrogant or greedy, just comfortable with the fact that he’s been rich all his life. Cornelia is his perfect counterpart–impeccably mannered and refined but not snooty. Their Willow Creek mansion and Old Country furnishings add an air of comfortable wealth.

Gunther Goth (Elder, College Dean)
Gunther brought his family from the old country when his son, Mortimer, was just a lad. Having amassed quite a fortune, he is the founding father of the town.

Cornelia Goth (née Crumplebottom) (Elder)
Cornelia is Gunther’s perfect counterpart—impeccably mannered and refined, but not snooty.  the founder of the Sim City Bridge Society, she enjoys high tea and phrenology and encouraging her daughter-in law’s interest in exotic gardening. She is thankful to have her grandchildren nearby.
